Brazing development and interfacial metallurgy study of tungsten and copper joints with eutectic gold copper brazing alloy

Low-Temperature Interface Reaction between Titanium and the Eutectic Silver-Copper Brazing Alloy

Reaction zones formed at 790 °C between solid titanium and liquid Ag-Cu eutectic alloys (pure and Ti-saturated) have been characterized. When pure Ag-Cu eutectic alloy with 40 at.% Cu is used, the interface reaction layer sequence is: αTi / Ti2Cu / TiCu / Ti3Cu4 / TiCu4 / L. Because of the fast dissolution rate of Ti in the alloy, the reaction zone remains very thin (3-6 μm) whatever the reacti...

Soldering and brazing of copper and copper alloys

Wettability of Brazing Filler Metals on Copper and Copper Alloys

The possibility of alloying can not be avoided at the interface between molten brazing filler metal and base metal in brazing, so the wettability of brazing filler metal can not be easily explained theoretically. We used the original apparatus for wettability test and investigated the relation between the wettability of brazing filler metals of Ag-P-Cu and Ag-Cu-Zn-Cd systems on copper and the ...

Investigation on effect of holding time in brazing of steel to cemented carbide using Cu-Ag alloy filler metal

Nowadays, cemented carbides-steels joints by brazing method are taken into consideration. One of the problems of these joints is the creation residual stresses that can reduce it with choose correct parameters of brazing. In this study, Silver base alloy filler containing copper, zinc and cadmium have been used in temperature 780°C and the effect of time parameter 5, 10 and 15 minutes on micros...

Copper coating of carbon steel by a furnace brazing process using brass as the braze

A ship building grade of carbon steel has been coated with copper by a furnace brazing process starting from a brass braze. An argon protective atmosphere was used to prevent oxidation of the steel. However, when the deposit was produced a low gas flow rate ensured that zinc was lost from the brass by oxidation leaving a copper deposit on the steel surface. The copper was found to be zinc free ...
